Re: 3/4 ton BBC 4x4?

I saw that one too. Notice he put un-molested in quotes. Also notice he said the truck was bought new in Washington, nothing about the owner buying it new.

By saying the drivetrain is all orginal to the truck he must mean all but the engine are original to the truck.

DAS in Roseville is a pretty well respected shop.

If I had $16,000 to spend on a truck that wasn't original I would find a rust free southwest 3/4 ton 4x4 myself, rebuild a big block myself, install it myself, upgrade the AC myself, and probably have $8000 - $9000 left over.

FWIW, I lived in Lindstrom for 10 years and still hold a position in the city there. I could pee on the town from my current house. If anybody is really serious about it and wants a board member to look it over I could be persuaded. If you google the phone number it looks like he lives next to where my daughter plays soccer.

In the 20 years I've lived in the area I've never seen this truck once.
